abstract="Whitewater kayaking is a rapidly growing form of extreme sport with a high risk potential for upper-body injuries, mainly concerning the head and torso. Direct impact traumata, such as a creek bone fracture, require an operation. The follow up treatment is aimed to prevent any loading from taking place. If necessary, a special facemask can be made to avoid injuries resulting from direct contact with hard surfaces. A suitable helmet for kayaking should include facial protection, which is not very common.<p /><p>Language: de</p>",
